impact of the united states entry to the war. the united states was part of the war effort from the beginning because we were selling large amounts of armaments to britain and france, not to germany and much of those sales on credit. because they were on credit, one impact of the war was to make the united states enormously wealthy because everybody ended up owing us money at the end of the war. militarily the u.s. entered the war in april of 1917, about a year and six months before the end. there was an enormous psychological boost for the our eyes when they u.s. entered. there wasn't much direct military effect immediately except on the oceans because of the u.s. had a surprisingly small standing army at that time. we did have quite a large navy which joined the british in hunting down german submarines. large numbers of american troops didn't begin arriving in france until may or june of 1918 and then they did have a considerable impact because the germans had launched a sort of desperate do or die offensive in march of 1918 w

most people in the united states and who grew up during the cold war assume that this berlin wall, the icon of the cold war period, was a product of moscow, that it was the long arm of moscow, it was the kremlin who had the initiative to build this wall. what's been so fascinating as lou referred to in my extensive research in the archives in moscow and berlin was to find out that in fact the soviets resisted this for eight years. the east german leader asked to seal off the border in berlin just as the border between east germany and west germany had been closed in 1952. that meant the only place left for free movement in germany was in berlin and he did not like this loophole and wanted to close it. shortly after stalin died, his successors refused the request on multiple grounds. they said sealing the border in berlin would be politically unacceptable and grossly simplistic. it would ruin life in this unified city of berlin. they said this is one city. it's one economy. you have to be crazy, we can't do this. and besides, it would call for bitterness on the part of all berliners in

the united states. american soldiers are going to get embroiled in a war there because the jews don't know how to defend themselves. don't do it. the secretary of state at the time, george marshall, who was the most revered american of his generation, said that if the president recognized the jewish state, he, george marshall, wouldn't vote for him in the 1948 presidential elections. but the president was a gentleman named harry truman, who claimed to have memorized the bible by age 14 and had himself joined a restorationist group called the american christian committee for palestine. he locked himself in the white house for 48 hours and on -- at 6:11 p.m. on may 14th, 1948, that's 11 minutes after israel declared its independence, harry truman made the united states the first nation on earth to recognize the recreated jewish state. and when asked later why he did this, why he went against the advice of all of his foreign policy counselors, truman basically had a two-word response. he said "i'm cyrus."
